In 2022, Joe Burrow and the Bengals stunned the Chiefs in the AFC Championship to advance to the Super Bowl. Now, in 2023, the Chiefs are looking to get their revenge.
For the second season in a row, a conference championship game will take place between Cincinnati and Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium. The rematch will take place this Sunday, and there’s no doubt Chiefs fans will be out in full force once again trying to make the atmosphere as loud as possible.
The ticket situation was slightly complicated by the fact that a neutral-site game was on the table up until Sunday evening, when the Bills were eliminated by the Bengals. Thousands bought tickets for a potential Buffalo-Kansas City matchup in Atlanta, only for Joe Burrow and Co. to nullify them. As Burrow said after the game on Sunday, “better send those refunds.”
The conference championship was ultimately scheduled for 6:30 p.m. ET (5:30 p.m. local time) on Sunday, Jan. 29. The Chiefs will play host thanks to their No. 1 seed.
